Baseball Hall of Famer Wade Boggs, aged 66, has announced on social media that he is battling prostate cancer. Expressing optimism, he stated his goal of 'ringing the bell' to signify the end of his treatment, crediting the support of his family and faith in God. Boggs, a five-time batting champion and 12-time All-Star, played 18 seasons in MLB with the Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, and Tampa Bay Devil Rays, and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2005. The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, along with fellow Hall of Famers, have extended their support. His diagnosis follows the recent successful cancer treatment of fellow 2005 Hall of Fame inductee Ryne Sandberg. Boggs remains active, having attended recent events and traveled with fellow Hall of Famer Fred McGriff.
